Middle Schools in Mesquite Independent School District (Isd)

The Mesquite Independent School District (ISD) in Texas is home to 10 middle schools serving students in grades 6-8. These schools serve a diverse student population, with a majority of Hispanic and African American students, and high rates of economic disadvantage across the district.

Among the middle schools in Mesquite ISD, Kimbrough Middle stands out as a consistent top performer, consistently ranking among the top middle schools in the state and outperforming district and state averages on STAAR assessments in Reading, Math, Science, and Social Studies. Another strong performer is Berry Middle, which excels in Math and Algebra I assessments, despite a lower statewide ranking.

However, the data also reveals disparities in academic performance across the district, with some schools, such as Terry Middle and Dr Don Woolley Middle, struggling to meet district and state benchmarks. This suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to address the factors contributing to these performance gaps, particularly given the high rates of economic disadvantage among students in the Mesquite ISD.
